Preparing for the 4th...

We decided to have a little fun last night outdoors. My sweet husband bought the items to roast hot dogs, marshmallows, and s'mores. Chris set up the tent so he and Carson could camp in the backyard. Every son's dream! We made a fire on our back patio. The kids just loved it. Lauren did not like the s'mores, but ate about 10 marshmallows. Carson enjoyed roasting them. We let him be a real camper and put sticks on the fire. We sat around our "campfire" and enjoyed being together. I FINALLY convinced Chris that we need a real fire pit! That will be our fall project.


I have to say a BIG thank you to Chris. He unloaded 4 loads of mulch yesterday, put in another new bed in our front yard and still managed to have enough energy to entertain all of us.

Can't wait to see what today brings...
HAPPY 4th of JULY!!!
